Hi,
 
I got several answers, and i thank all of you, but none of them seems to
work.
 
I tryed another method (based on the info i got from the replys) and got
interesting results:
 
The file structure is:
 
FILE: ABIN.PUB.SYS
 
FILE CODE : 0                   FOPTIONS: BINARY,VARIABLE,NOCCTL,STD
BLK FACTOR: 1                   CREATOR : **
REC SIZE: 256(BYTES)            LOCKWORD: **
BLK SIZE: 260(BYTES)            SECURITY--READ    : ANY
EXT SIZE: 51202(SECT)                     WRITE   : ANY
NUM REC: 4401                             APPEND  : ANY
NUM SEC: 4480                             LOCK    : ANY
NUM EXT: 6                                EXECUTE : ANY
MAX REC: 204800                         **SECURITY IS ON
MAX EXT: 8                      FLAGS   : NO ACCESSORS
NUM LABELS: 0                   CREATED : MON, OCT 23, 1995,  3:33 PM
MAX LABELS: 0                   MODIFIED: MON, OCT 23, 1995,  3:33 PM
DISC DEV #: 2                   ACCESSED: WED, OCT 25, 1995,  1:58 PM
SEC OFFSET: 0                   LABEL ADDR: **
VOLCLASS  : MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET:DISC
 
so i tried :
FILE t;dev=lp;rec=128,1,b
fcopy from=abin;to=*t
and got:
*201*WARNING: FROMFILE IS  BINARY, TOFILE IS ASCII
CONTINUE OPERATION (Y OR N) ?
 
(as you can see, it thinks the file *t is ascii, even if i defined it
implicitly to binary!)
 
 
What have i done wrong?
